You consider the factors - how hard it was to make, what facilities (appliances were used), how much the ingredients cost and where you are selling it. That's why eat out is cheaper than eat in. So if your premises are very expensive, then so is the food.

How do you set the selling price based on food cost percentage?

Suppose you want a 70% profit on a wedding cake that cost you $100 to prepare. 70% profit means 30% food cost. eg. 70% = Selling Price - $100 Selling Price = 100+((70/100)*100) = 100+70 = 170 Therefore, if you charged $170 for a cake that cost you $100 to prepare, the food cost percentage of your product would be 30% -- and you would gain 70% profit.

This is a theoretical food cost used to forecast your budget and determine what price to sell items at.2) Period End Food Cost = (beginning food inventory + food purchases - food credits - ending food inventory) / sales priceThis is the actual food cost for the restaurant for any given period of time (monthly, weekly, etc.) This is an actual food cost which will include "hidden" costs such as waste, theft, over-portioning and a host of other issues which can affect a restaurant's food cost.For more information, visit the Related Links.
